mitch41 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 On Stendel could Ann Budge please come out of hiding and tell her support what the hell is going on. No need for breaking confidentialities or naming targets we the fans just need to know she is going to employ a manager in the next week. I’d like her to acknowledge that we are in a relegation battle and a high profile, quality manager is still her top priority and she is moving heaven and earth to find him.

Leveins Battalion Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Do we all actually really want Stendel? Here my take as a Jambo,the list of candidates in the media was absolutely honking,from that list my 1st choice would of been Stephen Robinson.I like what I have read and heard about Stendel but I dont have any 1st hand knowledge of him. For me this who process has been an abomination and the same people on here defending Ann Budge are the same ones who defended Levein till the bitter end.The football team is in disarray,shambolic and rudderless. A luxury of time is something we cannot afford mid way through a season and sitting g joint bottom of the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Must admit I’m not a fan of wanting updates or statements from the club but we are going from bad to worse and have another game in 2 days I agree with people that a “done deal” with Stendel would have seen him at training this morning starting his new job.

The club have created a vacuum. It’s only natural that a vacuum gets filled with shit. And I completely don’t blame fellow Jambos on that front at the moment. This reminds me of that awful time under Romanov when Cervenkov, Korobochka and Frail managed the team by committee. I can’t believe Budge has allowed herself to get into a position where she might be considered worse at running the club than Romanov - even if it is just temporary Edited December 2, 2019 by Tom Hardy’s Dug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all the talk of being kept in the dark. Ann Gabe a timeline and as per previous, does her business behind closed doors and not through the papers. As long as it's about the timeline she said, then we should judge her on the outcome, not in the fact she isn't personally writing to posters here giving them ITK latest information. I'm confident when she announced the new man, she will also justify the time taken. All appointments are a risk, and I am 100% confident she knows how much she needs to get this right, not just for fans, not just for results, but for the business side of the club as well.

RDSK Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I wouldn’t rush to compare our situation re managers with Watford’s. Yes, they may be appointing a new one within 24/48hrs of sacking their last manager, but they’re also allowing Graham Stack to take their training session today. I’d rather we took till 2021 than allowed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just kidding but i reckon most managers are prepared to go at short notice and let the club deal with the moving arrangements separately. Having said that, i had a wee Google there and Barnsley appointed Stendel exactly one mnth after letting their previous manager go, so maybe he is someone who takes his time over these things.

Ribble Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 10 minutes ago, Nunya Business said: It took one month to appoint Levein after Cathro was sacked. I wouldn’t call that quick. Clubs sometimes sack their manager in the knowledge that there are options in the market that they can make a move for quickly, other times a managers tenure becomes untenable at a time where the options are limited to guys that have been out of work for a while or guys that you need to convince. There is no defined timeline for replacing a manager, it varies, sometimes it's a matter of hours (Jose at Spurs/JJ's return) and sometimes it's months and months (Tony Parkes taking caretaker charge of Blackburn for 7 months before Roy Hodgson arrived or David Pleats 8 months as caretaker at Spurs). The reality is somewhere inbetween and on the back of 2 failed appointments we couldn't take the risk of not assessing all options to make whoever is appointed as little of a risk as possible. MacPhee has taken caretaker charge of 4 games, he's the 6th caretaker manager in our history to have reached that number of games so it's not exactly groundbreaking that we have gone this long trying to find a new manager..

Why on earth would Budge want these 3 clowns to continue unless she is hanging on to this flawed bootroom plan. No manager worth their salt would work like that. It will be Neil McCann with Levein, who imo has only been taken out of the limelight, making a reappearance in some formal role in a few months.
